UK Net Zero Carbon Buildings Standard project
An opportunity for members and affiliates to become involved in developing a standard for verifying UK buildings as net zero carbon.
A cross-industry steering group, representing stakeholders across the built environment, have joined together to develop a standard for verifying UK buildings as net zero carbon.
Whilst significant progress has been made in defining what 'net zero' means for buildings in the UK, a process of market analysis showed a clear demand for a single, agreed methodology.
The UK Net Zero Carbon Buildings Standard will enable industry to robustly prove their built assets are net zero carbon and in line with our nation's climate targets. The UK Net Zero Carbon Buildings Standard will set out the requirements for achieving and verifying a built asset as net zero carbon in the UK market. It will be applicable to new and existing buildings.
There is opportunity for members and affiliates to be involved and support the standard and you are encouraged to read through the supporting information below and apply. Please note that whilst this is an individual opportunity the Institute would be keen to hear from any members or affiliates that are involved in the standard to ensure that our work is joined up.

The deadline for applications is 6 June 2022
